Toshiba : News Release 21 Jun, 2010: "Toshiba introduces the world's first dual-touch-screen
Windows� mini-notebook PC 'libretto W100'"
This thing looks great. I am intrigued by the haptic interface on one of the touchscreen sides--tactile feedback. Apparently there are 7 keyboard styles that can be set up on one of the screens, from regular qwerty to blackberry-style thumb keying.
From the Press Release:
Toshiba's excellence in high-density mounting and engineering have created a unique, pocket-sized companion, with distinctive dual 7.0-inch Wide LCDs that offer a display equivalent to a 10.0-inch wide screen. The clamshell case opens like a book or a notebook PC to reveal the world's first Windows® platform to integrate dual touch-sensitive screens. Used as a PC, the libretto displays a haptic keyboard on the lower screen; held vertically, it becomes an ebook reader that displays a double-page spread. Compact and only 699 grams, the libretto W100 is a "mini-note PC" that can go everywhere.
